German Potato Salad

This is a family favorite that I make all the time.
It goes especially well with Pork, pork steak or pulled pork..  
It's also best in the Springtime with sweet and mild Vidalia Onions.
This potato salad is served warm.  ~~Shelly


Ingredients

New Potatoes - about 2 small per person
Large Vidalia Onion, chopped
3/4 cup Best Choice White Vinegar
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons sugar
Bacon, diced and fried - DO NOT discard grease
salt to taste
Optional - chives for garnish.

Instructions

Boil potatoes for 15 minutes, they still be slightly firm.
Dice Onions
Cook diced bacon, drain on a paper towel, retaining the grease in the pan.

Drain potatoes and add cold water till you can easily handle.
Peal away the skin.
Slice potatoes (about 1/8 inch)

Layer potatoes, add salt. diced onions, repeat.

Reheat bacon grease on stove top.
Combine vinegar, water, and sugar.
Add to Bacon grease and bring to a boil.

Pour over potatoes, add fried bacon, and serve.

NOTES
I like Best Choice Vinegar because Heinz is stronger than I prefer.

Feel free to leave the skin on the potatoes.  I was taught to remove the potato skin.
